As I noted in an earlier post on Facebook-based media relations, ALL of my "contacts" on Facebook are professional relationships and I handle them as such.
But a cheesy catchy TV series theme song inspired this tongue-in-cheek video on what may be a sticking point for Facebook. Referring to contacts as friends may be causing some confusion as the social network evolves. The end result is the third episode of my Facebook Confessional video series, entitled "Is Friend a Four-Letter Word on Facebook?"
If nothing else, hopefully it will get you laughing (with me).

Fun stuff to start my day! Will post link shortly. Some friends and I have been debating the Facebook as professional networking site recently. This is a good log to throw on the fire.

Thank you for this valued social commentary on a web based social network tool that seems to be taking the world by storm! You have delivered smiles, with added food for thought.
